 Reminders:

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR GENEROSITY!

‘Families Helping Families’ Update


Despite Covid changing how our Families Helping Families looked, it couldn't change the outpouring of generosity shown by our community!  

So many groups of people have come together to support this peace initiative and we are so grateful.    

  • Thank you EHS families for raising $2891.00 to support families at Colonel Fred J. Scott School  
  • A HUGE thank you to Parent Council for their overwhelming support, helping us to collect money and shop for gift cards and stocking stuffers for the 14 families
  • Thank you to Tuscany Sobey's for donating Christmas goodies to help fill our stockings
  • Also, thank you to management at The Gap (Market Mall) for extending their Black Friday sales to our Families Helping Families' shopper.

We are excited to stuff stockings and deliver the gifts to Colonel Fred J. Scott School later this week.




Our Day:


Mrs. Campbell's Class:

- We all made "warm hugs" to send to the residents at the senior's home to go along with our wreaths. 

- Some students stuffed stockings for the Families Helping Families project. 










Mr. Kai and Ms. Wauthier's Class: 
- We began our day with a fun Math lesson from Mrs. Bowles! We were Shape Detectives and we figured out what the sorting rules were between different groups of 3D shapes. 
- Then we made our holiday cards for the senior's home. We hope our cards will bring them joy!



Have a great weekend!

REMINDERS Families Helping Families As is our tradition at Eric Harvie School, again this year we are calling on your kindness and generosity to help support a family in need at Christmas.  This year, we will be supporting 10 families at Colonel Fred J. Scott School who may need a little extra help to make Christmas brighter.  While in past years we asked for specific gift donations for individual family members, due to the pandemic, this year will look different.      This year we are asking for monetary donations.  These donations will purchase a variety of gift cards (eg. Walmart, Superstore, Safeway) and small stocking stuffers gifted to each member of the 10 families in a stocking.  Parent Council has generously offered their support by collecting the money via direct deposit and helping purchase the gifts.   Donations can be made via at   ehsestreasurer@gmail.com    (No password required.)  and are welcomed on or before...
